Corey Feldman: 'Strictly Come Dancing wouldn't be a challenge'

Hollywood actor Corey Feldman has claimed that taking part in Strictly Come Dancing would be too easy for him.

The Stand By Me star, who was eliminated from Dancing on Ice at the weekend, said that the BBC One ballroom reality show wouldn't be a challenge because he is already an accomplished dancer.

"That wouldn't be a challenge and it wouldn't really be fair to the other contestants, do you know what I mean?" Feldman told This Morning.

"I felt that [Dancing on Ice] was appropriate because I was challenging myself, it was pushing me to do something that I had never done. I was definitely out of my comfort zone, but I don't regret doing that because you have to take risks in life."

Feldman admitted that Dancing on Ice had been a bigger test than he expected, adding: "I don't know if I would do it again - if I would put myself through that again - but honestly if I could go back to zero and start afresh, I probably wouldn't have taken the commitment with knowing that I had other things in my schedule.

"I mean the fact that Jorgie [Porter] is pulling off what she's pulling off - well it's amazing, she's literally running on fumes."

The actor also played down reports of a feud between himself and pro partner Brooke Castile, describing the ice skater as "incredible". "I'm graced in her presence to be honest," he said.
